The Dangers of Mosquitoes & Ticks

Mosquitoes and ticks aren't just annoying pests, they can pose significant health risks to humans and animals. Understanding the dangers associated with these tiny creatures is crucial for safeguarding your family and pets from potential harm.

Mosquitoes

Mosquitoes are infamous for their itchy bites, but they also transmit a variety of diseases that can have serious consequences. 

Some of the most common mosquito-borne illnesses include:

• West Nile virus: This viral infection can cause fever, headache, body aches, and, in severe cases, neurological complications.
• Zika virus: Zika virus infection during pregnancy can lead to birth defects such as microcephaly and other developmental abnormalities in the fetus.
• Dengue fever: Symptoms of dengue fever include high fever, severe headache, joint and muscle pain, rash, and bleeding.

With their ability to breed rapidly in stagnant water and their affinity for biting humans, mosquitoes are a persistent threat to public health.

Ticks

Ticks are small arachnids that feed on the blood of mammals, including humans and pets. While not all ticks carry diseases, those that do can cause serious illnesses, including:

• Lyme disease: Caused by the bacterium Borrelia burgdorferi, Lyme disease can lead to a range of symptoms, including fever, fatigue, joint pain, and neurological problems, if left untreated.
• Rocky Mountain spotted fever: This bacterial infection can cause fever, headache, rash, and in severe cases, organ failure and death.
• Ehrlichiosis: Symptoms of ehrlichiosis include fever, headache, fatigue, and muscle aches, and in some cases, it can lead to severe complications such as respiratory failure.

Ticks are often found in wooded areas, tall grass, and shrubs, making it easy to encounter these pests during everyday outdoor activities such as hiking, camping, and gardening.
